Absolutely love this song.
It perfectly describes that little space between the rock and the hard place. When work sucks, or you're going through a bad breakup, having money problems, and you feel like you've got no one you can depend on or turn to.
To me, it describes that that feeling of not being able to possibly handle the things that life is throwing at you. The only solution is to pack up your bags and leave everything behind. You know it's not logical solution to your problems, but it's the only thing that provides you with hope. Sometimes, when you're feeling down, the prospect of starting a new life somewhere far far away is so appealing...
"Like on a holiday, but for longer - away from all the silly things that harm us" UGH. lyrical perfection..
